I think that was a good video! Really, the headband mounting for that camera works well. And you 45 up looked good, maybe even longer than necessary but then you want as much altitude as needed before the spin I suppose. That big ol' Waco is just draggy as heck... Looks like you're...

Oh my, prayers for jack and the family.

OK, thanks guys.

What is the best way to do a title search on an aircraft?

It would depend on my relationship with the passenger....

I'd bet youd be right. I wouldn't trust them either. Have you checked with the ranches nearby if they've lost some.. Or maybe the sheriff knows where they might be from. Did you used to fly here in alpine? I knew a guy whose family was from Hereford.

I've heard of cows eating fabric off a plane.... Duct tape is your friend

Ok, I'll practice... Really, it's a little embarrassing that I'm ok at 30 kts and in the 152 but I get uncomfortable at 20 in Rosy. Just a matter of working through it. I am the go around queen :yesnod: With fast feet.....:wink2: Now, if I get that christen eagle I'll really be in need...

Kinda figured that, makes sense... I'll re watch the video....

That was nicely done.. Flying and explanation. What's a P loop?

That would be too much for me in a tailwheel. I'm much more squeamish about wind in my decathlon.

There are some nice places to eat in las cruces :-) Not a bad place to wait. One of my first CFIs told me: if you get back and it's gusting to 45-50 just wait around near the airport for about 20-30 mins and it should settle or go over to Marfa if it's better there. His comment also...

If the CFI is ok with it then you can get some practice. Flying down the rwy with the CFI on the rudders and you on the ailerons then vice versa the maybe landing... If you have a bail out rwy. Available go for it. My students all get Xwinds practice up to 24-25 kts in a 152. It's not fun...

I think also, that it's incumbent on the CFI to be brutally honest with themselves regarding their proficiency in an aircraft and to say when they need a tune up in a type that is new to them. I expect myself to be able to competently fly many aircraft of a certain level but I wouldn't presume...

If you run out of rudder then fly along the rwy till it straightens out when the gust lulls then land. If it doesn't straighten out go around! You'll get a lot of practice going around and that's good. Is there another more conducive rwy nearby? If you aren't used to Xwinds then this is a...

Some of those pushes looked like minus 7Gs jeez, makes my head hurt just looking at it. How the heck did he do so e of that stuff. When he did the cobra pull up screech to a halt thing, my husband who usually volunteers as boundary judge laughed and said, that's one way to not go out of...

Oh, good. So if it does have cracks in it then depending on the extent and where they are should that be a no go? I realize this is subjective and I'll take yalls opinions as opinions ....

Seems the eagle looks so pretty because it's covered with ceconite and imron. so now, I'm thinking I won't get it because of the imron cracking and delaminating with hard flying use. Right now there are no cracks but it hasnt been flown much in acro either. Darn.

I had 30 hrs as a student the first time I took any acro lessons. It was after the third lesson that I told my husband someday I'm going to get a plane just like this. And then years later I did. It's good for students to get some unusual attitude/acro time!

I second that
